I got a fitbit back February. I don’t wear it, mainly because I fly fish so much and I would ruin it. I do love the api fitbit has. I basically got one for the api. I think it’s a pretty sweet device to use to get data. The first thing I did was test […]

Refurbished Post: I’ve been building lately, at work and recently a little on a Sunday. I’ve mostly been building javascript apps that use Salesforce’s rest api. It’s been fun, Salesforce has a lot to offer. Pretty much all the fun in building with SFDC comes from an authorized Salesforce user, and lucky for us, Salesforce […]

Hello people, today we are talking about the arduino yun. It seems that 2014 is the year for the microcontroller, microcomputer, and wifi to all have an orgy. The three are becoming a must have for hobbyists and people would love an all in one board that is small, and the companies have caught on. […]

A week or two ago I got an email from someone at the computer information science department at university of oregon telling all students that intel was coming to show off their new product called the Edison.
